Table Object 

Definition

Table from Human Resources (HR).

The system differentiates between the following types:

The table object, for example, WPBP, is a section of a cluster object, for example, RX, which belongs in turn to the database object, for example, PCL2.

The table object, for example, P0002, is an infotype whose superordinate database object (MDTA) is the set of all infotypes.

Characteristic

The only available characteristics for the table object are those automatically assigned by the SAP System.

Characteristics that you have assigned using the Table Entries function are an exception. For more information, see Table Entries.

The system derives the characteristics from the data definition include (for example, RPC2RDD0) for the superordinate cluster object (for example, RD).

For more information, see the section on data definition of cluster data with the data definition include.

For table objects with the Set of All Infotypes as the superordinate database object (MDTA), the system derives the characteristics from the ABAP Dictionary (DDIC).

Use

If you assign a database object with the type Import/Export file to the interface format, you must select the cluster containing the payroll or time evaluation data.

When you create a table object, the system displays a list of all internal tables and field strings. There following types of lists are available:

From this list, you can select the table objects for data export. The Interface Toolbox automatically inserts all accompanying field objects for the selected table object.
